Through Curves command 1

[Nutria360]

Hi, I'm learning NX and I have some questions about the Through Curves command. I want to model a compressor blade based on the different airfoils along its span. However, when I use the command, it generates a sheet instead of a closed solid. I’ve seen some posts here where people manage to create a closed surface even with an open profile using the same command. I would really appreciate it if you could explain how!!" Not doing for me. Just explanation!

In the "settings" section of the dialog, change the "body type" option to "solid". If possible, a solid body will be created. I think the section curves need to be planar, closed loops for it to work, IIRC.

When working with the free-form surfacing commands, it is common to create sheet bodies then sew them all into a solid at a later step. Sometimes this is an easier workflow.

Also, you shouldn't post the same question twice.

I really believe it was your Part file that I downloaded from NX, where you modified a wind turbine blade, and I liked the way you did it. I have been trying to apply that method to a blade I am working on, but I can't manage to get a closed contour. Could you explain to me how you achieved it?


This is the file that you uploaded.

Sorry for that! My bad.

I tried that. But I get the same result.
